Guest attilathehun1 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 I formatted my slave hard drive and did a quick format (erase), instead of a complete format. I wanted to put another operating system on the hard drive and now I'm having problems loading it up. It says: Invalid system disk, replace the disk and press any key. I tried to get into BIOS but this message comes up. When I put Windows ME OS disk into it then it says: Boot from CD-ROM or boot from hard drive. When I chose CD-ROM and ran the operating system it got to the point where it says something to this nature: make sure to remove any floppy diskette and press any key to restart your computer. That's as far as I get. Maybe I should've done a complete format? Does a quick format leave the operating system on the disk? I want to erase the whole disk and have it completely clean. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, attilathehun1 -- Posted via http://computerhelpforums.net Forum to USENET Gateway
